Hi,
I’m creating a site using the Vantage theme (free version for now).
On the homepage I added a SiteOrigin Hero with 1 frame.
The content of the frame is some H1 text.
The Background video points to an MP4 video that was uploaded to the media library.
Everything looks awesome in a desktop browser.
On a phone or tablet however, the Hero shows up as a colored block (using the Hero’s background color) with text, no video :(
Anything I’m doing wrong?
If not, any suggested alternatives (free or small fee, as it’s a charity website).
Thanks!
Rene
Hi Rene
Thanks for reaching out.
The behaviour you’re seeing is expected. Due to battery concerns, there isn’t support for background images in mobile browsers. If you add a background image to your Hero widget it’ll be used as a fallback for mobile devices.
HiAndrew,
Thank you for your fast reply.
Clear answer, which makes total sense.
I’ll use a fallback image then.
Thanks!
Rene
Thanks for your understanding. Hope the fallback image does the trick.
All the best.
